I have a pressure regulator out of my D361 in an old IH tractor and the piston has an 1/8 to 5/32 hole in the end of it! Ive been having low oil pressure on this tractor for a while and when its warm i cannot idle it or it drops to nothin. I have to have it at a fast idle to keep 15 to 20 lbs. 30 is the most it will do. I find that hold in the piston very odd.. I would think when the oil is hot it would all bypass even going to the filters. I understand 15-40 is thick but not when its hot! Im not sure what to do. I need the tractor like now! I cant find an image online to see if its the way its supposed to be. Id like to cover it with a shim or somethin but i dont want 100 psi! Lol it has holes on the side where it dumps when the piston moves but shit.. i cant see it budging that piston with a drilled hole in it that size!
Rest in peace, legend.
Nice video and simple! You answered 2 questions I had in one go! Thanks!
